Yes, very amusing. :-/

Ok, I did a little research on BOM. And came up with information that tells
me the BOM isn't particularly necessary for UTF-8. Then I ran a simple test
with utf8_encode:
<?php
echo utf8_encode( 'ο' );
?>
Which output looks like it works just fine:
Γ―
Since I've concluded (see my reply to Andy Hassall) that my files are
encoded in '1252 (ANSI - Latijn I)' and this test file was also '1252
(ANSI - Latijn I)' I guess it works. And I don't necessary have to provide a
BOM and don't have to resort to iconv. Correct?
Or am I missing something vital here?
Thanks.
